I just added this list to LibraryThing. Only read five of the books myself.

Thanks! That's an interesting list. I like the regional focus, although some of the titles are there by virtue of the author's home rather than any regional content. I have 8 of the 100, and have read about half of those. Just added the Abigail Scott Duniway to my wishlist, and I will be back to look for more.

Interesting list. I have to admit to not knowing many of these works, but gratified to see that I have read a few of them. Thanks for taking the time to post it.

I just discovered this list. I think I should explore more often! I only have a couple of these but it's great to have a new list to consider. Thanks for posting it, Owen.
